Extract Recent Instagram Notifications
Automates the process of collecting recent likes, comments, and new followers from your Instagram notifications page, saving you from manual checks and data entry.
This automation streamlines your Instagram engagement tracking. Here’s how it works:
  1. Logs In: The automation first opens Instagram and checks if you are signed in. If not, it will prompt you to log in before continuing.
  2. Navigates to Notifications: It efficiently navigates directly to your notifications page, bypassing your feed to save time and avoid distractions. It's also designed to handle and dismiss common pop-ups that might get in the way.
  3. Filters by Time: Using the time window you specify (e.g., the last 24 hours), the automation uses AI to scan the page and identify only the notifications that fall within that period.
  4. Extracts Engagement: It intelligently reads the recent notifications and extracts the usernames of users who have liked your content, commented on your posts, or started following you.
  5. Returns Structured Data: Finally, it organizes this information into a clean, structured format, listing the usernames for each engagement type (likes, comments, new followers) and providing a total count for each. This data can then be used in other workflows or for reporting.
Usage Ideas
  • Create a daily or weekly report of your Instagram engagement metrics.
  • Identify your most engaged followers for special outreach or community-building initiatives.
  • Feed the list of new followers into a CRM or a welcome message sequence.
  • Track engagement spikes after posting new content to see what resonates with your audience.
  • Monitor brand sentiment by analyzing the usernames of people interacting with your posts.
Customization Ideas
This template is a great starting point for monitoring your Instagram engagement. You can easily customize it to fit your specific needs:
  • Adjust the Timeframe: You can change the time window for fetching notifications, from the last hour to the last week or more.
  • Capture Different Notifications: You can modify the automation to look for other types of engagement, such as mentions, tags, or story replies, in addition to or instead of the default likes, comments, and followers.
  • Extract More Detail: Ask the agent to enhance the extraction to pull more information, such as the full text of a comment or a link to the post that received the engagement.
  • Integrate with Other Tools: The extracted list of engaged users can be sent to other services. For example, you could automatically add new followers to a spreadsheet, send a summary to a messaging app, or trigger another workflow.
